The really frustrating thing with this episode is the only parts of it that are remotely fun are the in-between parts. The stories are just a huge pile of bleh. I'd have genuinely preferred if it were just them roaming around the cave for half an hour.
Really just not feeling the second half of the season so far.

8. Not the most dynamic episode, but I love a good lore dump.

So Barry Safchick and Michael Platt were writers for shows like Weeds and Sullivan & Son

"Campfire Tales"...gets an 8/10 from me.
Pros:
-Loved the callbacks to Season 3's "Sleepless In Ponyville" and how much everypony has developed since then (Rarity being better at roughing it for example)...well, except Scootaloo but as Fluttershy paraphrased two weeks ago: "You cannot change who you are in a few times". Generally liked the interactions between all three sister pairings as well.
-Flyders...interesting. Safchik and Platt may have watched too much Wuzzles and Last Airbender, but I generally like a bit out-there things like this. Makes the bestiary more interesting.
-Favorite story was Mistmane's. I am a sucker for the Neighponese setting they set here, the different design of the Neighponese ponies and the ending where Mistmane made a sacrifice to return her home to its former beauty. This was wonderful.
-Story pacing was quite good again and everything flowed smoothly without any lengths.
Cons:
-Really did not like the Rockhoof story which is probably mostly due to the IDW comic. In the comic, while the shovel incident is mentioned, it was told that Rockhoof earned his physique through his rigorous training that he did in order to become a member of the Mighty Helm. Here in the TV version, he earns by the powers of plot contrivance. I was looking forward to him getting minified again and this being just a hint at his future glory, but no go. Really disappointed with this one.
-Flash Magnus's was just...decent, nothing more, nothing less. Loved young Torch and "Owl's Well That Ends Well" dragon, but otherwise it was just...decent. Nothing too bad, but nothing too good either.
So yeah, 8/10 feels deserved.
